thinking about getting a fifthwheel
We have had a class B+ motorhome ( Forest river lexington) for 10 years but have only had time for 2 or3 week long trips per year and then some weekends. We have loved it but the storage is terribl...

We just moved up from a small travel trailer to a 30' 5th wheel -- a Winnebago Minnie Plus 27RLTS. It's a rear living model with a center kitchen island. We have much the same goal as you -- not to be full time, but to eventually go on longer trips than we can do now.
We have been very happy with this trailer so far. There is more storage than we can fill at this time. Maybe we'll get to a time when we'll fill more of it as we take longer trips.
We opted for NO auto-leveling and are finding it's really pretty easy to level without it. It would have added about $2,000 to the price of the trailer -- no thanks.
Has not been difficult to get used to at all -- although I think we have sacrificed some of the "camping" feel to our traveling. :-)
Yes, definitely do your research on what kind of truck you will need for the trailer you pick, but don't necessarily assume that you must have a dually in order to pull a 5th wheel.
